Job: Video Editor & Motion Graphics - Entertainment

Location: Hybrid - London

The Role

We’re looking for a creative video editor who’s fluent in social media formats and excited to be involved from the very first spark of an idea right through to the final cut. This role is ideal for someone who loves storytelling through video, knows how to craft platform-native content, and thrives in a collaborative, idea-first environment.

You’ll be part of a small, close-knit team of editors and designers, reporting to the Head of Studio, and working across a mix of projects from branded content to pitch materials, all with creativity at their core.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit dynamic, social-first videos across platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
• Add motion graphics (e.g., lower thirds, animated subtitles, transitions) that enhance viewer engagement.
• Join creative brainstorms to help develop strong video-led content ideas.
• Design social assets and mockups for decks and presentations.
• Stay up-to-date with trends and editing best practices in the social/content space.

• Flexibility to work from detailed briefs or take creative initiative from raw footage.
• A good feel for what works on different social platforms, not just specs, but tone and timing too.
• Bonus if you’re happy shooting on lo-fi devices (iPhones, etc.) or helping on small sets.
